Tostitos with Hint of Lime: Yummy Tortilla Chips!

We were at the store the other day and decided to get some more chips for the occasional chips & salsa snack. We spied something that neither of us had seen before: Tostitos with Hint of Lime.

There's nothing wrong with a bit of lime, we figured. So we picked up a bag.

Kathleen had some the other night and really liked 'em. I had one during lunch yesterday and found myself needing to hit the bag myself to grab a handful. They're really good. Almost addictively good.

The lime flavoring is clear but not over-powering. They're sweet and salty at the same time. And, best of all, they're so good that you can chow on a pile without even bothering to get out the salsa (not that it'd hurt to add some).

If you're a fan of tortilla chips, I highly recommend picking up a bag. You might be surprised.

Update: A few people have pointed out that they get some of that flavor from MSG. That unfortunately explains the minor headache I got last night after eating a few more of them. *sigh* :-(

OH MAN! These are the absolutely worst chips ever made. Try the real deal from someplace like Chipotle then try these again. Disgusting! The flovoring is accomplished by the green powder they spread on the chips. BLECH!

Those things are fantastic and absurdly addictive. Seems like there has been a growing trend recently of adding lime to things; I'm still trying to decide how I feel about that Miller Chill beer. Either way thanks for reminding me about the chips, it looks like I need to make a pit stop on the way home tonight.

Hi Jeremy. Even though I believe blogs are a great way to spread the word about things you think deserve our attention, I have a weird feeling about you giving such exposure to a product like this.

Maybe it's because I know this flavor contains sodium glutamate, and I've long banned it from my diet. Maybe it's because these are chips, not geek gadgets. Maybe it's because you included a picture. I can't explain...

I, too, find them pretty addictive. I wish they could get rid of the MSG, because for party food, they are great, particularly if the dip runs out. As nice as some of the alternative chips are, they unfortunately don't always please the majority of people.

After (at least 2) very nasty migraines about 1 month apart, I turned over the bag of lime flavored Tostitos I had eaten prior to getting the headache and saw MSG listed :-( I LOVE these yummy lime Tostitos, too, and organic chips taste like vomit compared to these... Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
